A Team Approach to Improving Inpatient Glycemic Control
Hyperglycemia Critical Pathways CME/CE Teleconferences Program Description
The Inpatient Hyperglycemia Critical Pathways CME Champion Teleconferences provide timely, practical information that will help you apply the latest clinical recommendations and performance standards for achieving inpatient glycemic control. On January 21, Dr. Silvio Inzucchi will discuss the impact of the new diagnostic criteria for diabetes on the inpatient setting and review appropriate discharge planning for the newly diagnosed patient. On February 24, Dr. Stephen Clement will address evidence-based approaches to insulin therapy for special inpatient circumstances through the use of case presentations. You will also have the opportunity to share experiences with your peers nationwide and hear from other hospital teams on how they are developing successful critical pathways for inpatient hyperglycemia. These interactive forums will enable you to continue to develop, improve, and implement critical pathways at your own institution, thereby improving patient outcomes.
